I understand that maybe A LOT of us are starting to expect too much right away, but it's gotten to the point where we have the opportunity to get better right away. If Amare is supposed to be part of our championship runs, then playing on 6th seed, 1st round exit teams is a waste and risky as you can see how much the load has effected his health.Originally Posted by Super Producer J
Ya'll really jumping off the bridge right now. What happened to all this leverage we had with Melo, huh? I mean, coming into this season, what kind of team did you expect us to be? A 50 win team? If so, you my friend were severely delusional.
With Felton, let the man continue to grow. Hell, he's only under contract for 2 seasons. You seriously want to trade a young player like him for Chauncey Billups? Chauncey Billups?! And furthermore, Denver should get as little assets as possible from us. How many teams have screwed us over these past few years? It's time for us to get gifted a player like the Pau for Brown trade. Why do we have to gut our team to get a guy who doesn't even fulfill our most pertinent needs at the moment? We have bigger issues than Melo right now. If he comes, we still can't battle any teams with length. Oh wait, Pryzbila & Cook (I don't even know where that came from) will solve that. We still don't have an effective backup PG. We still don't have a player that plays defense first.
I'm not opposed to the Chandler & AR deal from recent weeks, but we shouldn't have to ante up the offer if Melo is truly about coming to NY.
Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don't make. These last 30 games or so will show us the true character of this team IMO.

This.
But on a serious note, the bipolar disorder in this thread is so out of hand. Either you want to trade for Melo or stand firm and try and acquire him in the offseason via free agency. I understand the mood will sway with winning and losing, but everyone is quick to ship everyone away after a loss. It's ridiculous, especially when you lose to a high caliber team such as LA. Everyone needs to just relax. If at the beginning of the season we said we'd be the 6 seed a week prior to the All-Star break, we'd ALL sign up for that no doubt. I understand that expectactions change as the season goes on, but looking at the big picture, this team is one of the youngest in the league and we will not get any higher than the 6 seed with the pieces we have right now. Even with Melo, I don't think we'd crack the top 4 in the East. I'm just going to try and stay positive and enjoy the team being in the playoff hunt after that decade of irrelevancy. I do hate losing(who doesn't?) but just try and see the light at the end of the tunnel because the Knicks are still in the process of restoring this thing.

He's the one that told me we're drafting gallo (he coached a player that played with gallo in Europe and dude said Gallo got a guarantee from Knicks in draft) weeks in advance.
I'm just passing along info, take it for what its worth...
